We are working towards opening St Paul’s Scotforth Church for in-person worship on Easter Sunday and preparing to worship online as we approach Palm Sunday and Holy Week. Throughout Lent I have been sharing prayers that I have found helpful on my own spiritual journey, or recommended by others. Here is one by Rev Liz England that I find helpful when I am at a loss for words: When I don't want to pray As I sit there Still Whenever. I can turn my hands over So the palms face upwards Towards the ceiling Or sky And I wait. This action is my prayer If I have no words If I cannot pray If I don't want to pray God hears me. Amen Collect for 21st March 2021: Most merciful God, who by the death and resurrection of your Son Jesus Christ delivered and saved the world; grant that by faith in him who suffered on the cross we may triumph in the power of his victory; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. FOR OUR PRAYERS Our mission Partners: Stephen and Marit Impey managing Wycliffe Bible Translators Ethiopian work, the work of Global Link and MIND (Lancashire).

Those who have died due to the coronavirus. Readings for Sunday 21st March: Jeremiah 31.31-34 31 The days are surely coming, says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah. 32It will not be like the covenant that I made with their ancestors when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt—a covenant that they broke, though I was their husband,* says the Lord. 33But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. 34No longer shall they teach one another, or say to each other, ‘Know the Lord’, for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest, says the Lord; for I will forgive their iniquity, and remember their sin no more. John 12.20-33 20 Now among those who went up to worship at the festival were some Greeks. 21They came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, and said to him, ‘Sir, we wish to see Jesus.’ 22Philip went and told Andrew; then Andrew and Philip went and told Jesus. 23Jesus answered them, ‘The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. 24Very truly, I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains just a single grain; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. 25Those who love their life lose it, and those who hate their life in this world will keep it for eternal life. 26Whoever serves me must follow me, and where I am, there will my servant be also. Whoever serves me, the Father will honour. 27 ‘Now my soul is troubled. And what should I say—“Father, save me from this hour”? No, it is for this reason that I have come to this hour. 28Father, glorify your name.’ Then a voice came from heaven, ‘I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.’ 29The crowd standing there heard it and said that it was thunder. Others said, ‘An angel has spoken to him.’ 30Jesus answered, ‘This voice has come for your sake, not for mine. 31Now is the judgement of this world; now the ruler of this world will be driven out. 32And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people* to myself.’ 33He said this to indicate the kind of death he was to die. A message from Reverend Claire: During this season of lent, I will be praying for Hala and I invite you to join me. You might like to use the prayer below as a starting point to pray. Feel free to pray alone or with a friend over the phone, or you may like to join me on Zoom on Sunday mornings after the online service. You can email me at [email protected] for the details of the zoom call. The link remains the same for each week. A Lenten Prayer for Hala - based on Matthew 28:16-20 Lord Jesus, we come to you in worship. We come as we are, bringing our hopes and dreams, our fears and doubts, our joys and challenges. Thank you that you welcome us. We pause to wonder at your glory. We recognise that we are your people. We stand in your authority, only because you have given it to us. Without you, our best efforts are empty. Teach us to embrace our weakness, that in you, we may find strength. We pause to submit ourselves to you and commit ourselves to your will once again. We hear your command to go. We feel the discomfort of stepping out of what is familiar to us. We name our fear and the things we don't want to leave behind. Teach us to follow you; that we might grow in trust in you. We pause to count the cost and choose to obey your command. We look to your example of making disciples, of sharing life generously. Help us to speak well of you, to point to the work you are doing in people's lives. We ask you to bring new life to Hala; For answered prayers and lives lived in celebration and obedience to you. We pause to name those we know in Hala and ask for your blessing upon them. We are thankful of your promise to be with us, always. We take confidence in this alone. Your presence with us is enough, Jesus. We pause to be still and know you are God. We pause to recognise your love holds us and sends us. We pause to notice how your spirit leads us today. National Census Day – Sunday 21st March: Just a reminder that a national census is taking place on Sunday, 21st March and we are all required by law to complete our census forms on that day and submit or return them as soon as possible thereafter. Failure to do so could result in a fine up to £1000. All households should have received a letter about how to do this online, but if you need a paper form or need help to complete the form in any other way you should ring 0800 141 2021. Large print formats are available and all telephone calls to the helpline are free. A message from a member of our church family: Thank you to those who organised and delivered the beautiful pot plants to members of our church family. As the plant became part of each household, it surely helped us to ‘remember’ many previous years when all the ladies in church received a plant on Mothering Sunday. Perhaps it ‘reset’ our minds after a long Covid lockdown to ‘reflect’ on the spring flowers in the knowledge that summer follows spring, and to ‘refresh’ our faith as Easter follows Lent. Are we going to be able to ‘restore’ some form of normality on Easter Sunday with the church perhaps open? After the ‘recharge’ given by the current Lenten series of sermons, and by our beautiful spring houseplants, we offer grateful thanks to all who have been involved. Escape to the Tropics with Fairtrade and RSPB by Arton Medd: The R SPB Lancaster local group and Lancaster, Morecambe and District Fairtrade Group are joining forces for an event focussing on the Gola Rainforest in Sierra Leone, West Africa via Zoom on Tuesday 30th March at 7.30pm.

  • Blackburn Prayers June 2020
    Blackburn Prayers June 2020 Since March we have seen unprecedented events taking place in our country and around the world in response to the coronavirus outbreak. A Daily Update for parishes is being sent from Bishop Philip and the coronavirus task group; they are also available each day on the main coronavirus advice page. Bishop Philip wrote in one of those Daily Updates that, above all, we must give ourselves at this time to the work of prayer. That is why you will notice we have introduced a special intention each day in Blackburn Prayers to help us to pray into the current crisis. Meanwhile, if you have not subscribed to receive our Daily Prayers email into your inbox, now may be the time to do so. Simply click the link here. We also continue to share Bishop Julian’s Bible verses to meditate on and memorise each month as part of his 'Bishop's Bible Challenge' to encourage the spiritual discipline of learning Bible verses by heart. More information about the Bible Challenge here. We also continue with Vision 2026 prayers reflecting Making Disciples, Being Witnesses, Growing Leaders and Youth/Children and Schools and prayers for our National Church Funded Projects in Blackpool, Blackburn and Preston. If you have any comments, amendments or updates regarding Blackburn Prayers, please direct them to [email protected] For more about parishes in this month’s edition, click on the links taking you to either their own website or their A Church Near You site. Key: cw = churchwarden of vacant parish Monday 1 June As we remember the visit of Mary to her cousin Elizabeth and the support they Visit of the Blessed Virgin were able to give each other, pray for all those who are unable to physically visit Mary to Elizabeth those they care about.

  • The Established Church During the English Revolution
    1 MINISTERS OF STATE: THE ESTABLISHED CHURCH IN LANCASHIRE DURING THE ENGLISH REVOLUTION ALEX CRAVEN University of Manchester Although the importance of religion in causing and driving the Civil War has rarely been doubted, historians‟ attention has more often been drawn to the study of „Puritanism‟ before the outbreak of the wars, and „radicalism‟ during them. The focus has been on the issues of doctrinal debates, denominational conflict, the effort to impose godly discipline in England, and the extent of toleration, rather than to a study of the institution of the Church during the mid seventeenth century. Much has been made of the campaign to reform the morals of the nation, from the abolition of the few remaining „Popish‟ festivals on the calendar and the attacks upon „profane‟ or „heathen‟ entertainments (such as May poles or Sunday sports), to the Commonwealth legislation against swearing and fornication, culminating with the aborted project of the Major- Generals during the Protectorate.[1] More recent work has focused upon the continuing attachment of the nation to the Book of Common Prayer and Anglicanism.[2] What study that has been made of the machinery of Church has tended to finish abruptly at the revolutionary seismic fault line of 1642.[3] The ecclesiastical legislation of the early 1640s is justly famous, but developments within the institutional structure and administration of the Church after 1645 have been largely overlooked. In the space of a few short years, the House of Commons deconstructed the ancient apparatus of the episcopal Church, and replaced it with a Presbyterian equivalent. The abolition of the Court of High Commission and the exclusion of the bishops from the Lords in 1641 were followed inevitably by the abolition of episcopacy.
